Get Rid of Paper Catalogs - Use Flash Catalogs
Imagine opening your mail box to see that someone dear has written a letter to you – it is enough to make you well up with tears. But time and again, the only thing in your mail box (apart from bills) are unsolicited paper catalogs. They are nothing but junk to you. You wonder why on earth that company sent them to you. Why would they waste all that paper and effort? Why cut millions of trees to make something that you don’t want?
Well, there are a couple of solutions – one for the paper catalog makers and the other for the consumers.
There is a website called Catalog Choice, and their mission is to stop those junk paper catalogs from being sent. Consumers who don’t wish to receive paper catalogs may use that website to opt out of such unsolicited mails. In this way, consumers can help out the environment.
Another website called eCatalog Creator enables paper catalog makers (product sellers) to switch to an online flash catalog, or eCatalog. An eCatalog is in essence an online version of the paper catalog. Consumers may visit the seller’s website and browse through the products in 3D page flipping software – it’s like a virtual page flip book. Flash catalog is available online 24×7. Therefore, the consumer is always aware of the latest offers by the company. The eCatalog provides greater coverage, since it uses the Internet as the medium of communication. It targets the exponentially growing group of people who prefer to read online.
It turns out that over 8 million tons of trees are used each year for paper catalogs – let’s stop this insanity now! Save the trees, go get a flash catalog from eCatalog Creator.
